Nothing as cool as Charles or Eugen, I got started during my B.Sc.
Quickly found out that I could easily write programs with a reasonable
amount of competency to teach the lab assistants a thing or two. Learnt
started out doing the usual basic, cobol, fortran type stuff (entirely out
of my own interest), wrote stuff like a "find your blood group if you know
your parents blood groups" program for a science project, etc etc.
Then early on figured out that coding is just not for me. Started off for a
while as a sysadmin.
Moved away from that as well, to simply lean back and tell coders,
sysadmins, support types, customers etc what each others want.
I'm glad to report that I can't (and don't ever feel the need to) write
even a hello world.
